About Snoqualmie Falls, Washington

Snoqualmie Falls thunders 268 feet down a rocky cliff where the Snoqualmie River makes its dramatic descent through the Cascade foothills, creating one of Washington State's most spectacular natural attractions just 30 miles east of Seattle. The falls carry twice the volume of Niagara Falls during peak flow, producing 1.5 million gallons of water per minute during spring runoff that generates a constant roar and perpetual mist cloud visible for miles. Sacred to the Snoqualmie Tribe (whose name means "people of the moon") for thousands of years, the falls served as a spiritual gathering place and seasonal fishing ground long before becoming Washington's most visited natural wonder, attracting over 1.5 million visitors annually. The dramatic landscape achieved global fame as the iconic opening shot of David Lynch's Twin Peaks (1990-1991), where the falls' brooding beauty established the show's mysterious Pacific Northwest atmosphere—making Snoqualmie Falls instantly recognizable to television audiences worldwide and transforming the location into a pilgrimage site for Twin Peaks devotees. The historic Salish Lodge & Spa perches dramatically at the top of the falls, offering luxury accommodations and the famous restaurant featured in Twin Peaks as the Great Northern Hotel's dining room (though interiors were filmed elsewhere). A 0.5-mile paved trail descends to a viewing platform at the falls' base, allowing visitors to experience the full power of cascading water and feel the perpetual spray while photographers capture rainbow refractions in the mist. The falls remain a working hydroelectric plant—the world's first underground power plant built in 1898 still generates electricity from Snoqualmie Falls' powerful flow through Plant 2 deep inside the cliff. Beyond the main attraction, Snoqualmie Valley offers hiking trails through old-growth cedar forests, the Northwest Railway Museum, and access to Snoqualmie Pass ski areas. The waterfall's seasonal drama transforms throughout the year—spring melt creates thundering torrents that shake viewing platforms, summer flow reveals rock formations, autumn colors frame golden foliage against white water, and occasional winter freezes create surreal ice formations. Located just off I-90 between Seattle and the Cascade crest, Snoqualmie Falls provides easy access to Pacific Northwest waterfall majesty—families picnic at the upper viewpoint, photographers chase golden hour lighting, Twin Peaks fans recreate opening credit shots, and outdoor enthusiasts use it as a gateway to Cascade adventures. Whether experiencing the falls' raw power from the base platform, dining at Salish Lodge while watching sunset light paint the canyon, exploring Twin Peaks filming locations throughout Snoqualmie Valley, or simply standing mesmerized by 268 feet of perpetual motion, Snoqualmie Falls delivers that quintessential Pacific Northwest combination of natural grandeur and cultural significance. This poster honors the thundering beauty, Twin Peaks legacy, and enduring appeal of Washington's most famous waterfall.
